Thanks to the agreement between Imperial Oil Ltd. and Enel X, a 20 MW/40 MWh behind-the-meter Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) will be developed for the company’s refinery in Sarnia, Ontario.
According to publicly available data, the system is expected to be the largest behind-the-meter BESS in North America and it is estimated to deliver $4 million in energy savings for Imperial Oil.
